ASCB-D Rugged TIS

The stand alone Recording µTIS integrates the ICS TP1001-902 ASCB RX Only 4-channel ASCB-D Interface Card module into a rugged aluminum box that can be powered from 9-36 VDC allowing it to run from standard 14V or 28V DC aircraft power buses for flight test applications.

The µTIS design is done entirely in embedded hardware / software. Most processing is done in a XILINX FPGA device implemented in VHDL. The majority of the ASCB-D data processing is done in real-time in hardware using Finite State Machines to process the data. This removes the burden from the on-board CPUs and allows for a larger number of parameters to be processed at a lower power consumption.

The product is designed specifically to translate and record Honeywell® ASCB-D data to ICS UDP Ethernet format

The μTIS can process over 2000 ASCB-D parameters in real-time to UDP Ethernet output stream. Optional On board recording of ASCB-D Bus to Solid State Disk Drive. Support for Internal SSD Disks or Removable Compact Flash (up to 19 hours recording time).

No external Bus Interface Adapters (BIAs) required as in present MINI-TIS or TISLT1 platforms. The μTIS uses same bus interface circuitry as existing Mini-TIS and TISLT1 Bus Interface Adapters, but these are internal to the μTIS.

Full MINI-TIS capability of ASCB-D parameter conversion and recording is possible in a smaller and more rugged package.
